Available Models
Acid Hydrolysate of Casein is included in the composition of culture media intended for microbiological assays of vitamins and of tryptophan, as well as for the study of the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics, to sulfamides in particular. It is included in Mueller-Hinton Agar.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1404HA – 500 g bottle
Bacteriological agars act as solidification agents in the preparation of solid culture media at concentrations between 12 and 20 g / L.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1010HA – 500 g bottle
A1010GC – 5 kg drum
Bacteriological agars act as solidification agents in the preparation of solid culture media at concentrations between 12 and 20 g / L.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1012HA – 500 g bottle
A1012GC – 5 kg drum
Malt extract is intended primarily for the culture and enumeration of yeasts and molds in malt extract media. It favors the sporulation of molds such as Aspergillus and Penicillium. Because of it high carbohydrate content, malt extract should not be subjected to excessive heating, since the culture medium will turn brown.
Presentation
Dehydrated medium:
A1101HA – 500 g bottle
A1101GC – 5 kg drum
Combined with peptones of different origins, Bacteriological Meat Extract is an excellent nutritional complement destined for the preparation of a variety of culture media. It is normally used in the concentration range of 0.2 to 1.0%.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1710HA – 500 g bottle
Pancreatic Digest of Casein Codex is suitable for the preparation of culture media destined for usual bacteriological controls. Combined with meat peptones and as a result of its appropriate nutritional qualities and pH, it is used in media destined for the growth of yeasts and molds. It is also used to grow lactic acid bacteria and for the development of sporulated aerobic bacteria such as Bacillus species.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1402HA – 500 g bottle
A1402GC – 5 kg drum
Pancreatic Digest of Meat Type 2 is suitable for the culture of a large number of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. It is recommended for spore production in anaerobic bacteria such as Clostridium perfringens.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1702HA – 500 g bottle
As a result of its balanced content of essential amino acids, carbohydrates and vitamins, Papaic Digest of Soybean Meal USP leads to the very rapid and abundant growth of a wide variety of microorganisms, including yeasts and molds. It is often combined with Tryptone in Tryptone Soy Broth and Tryptone Soy Agar for the growth of fastidious microorganisms.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1601HA – 500 g bottle
Peptic Digest of Meat USP is used for the growth of yeasts and molds, enterobacteria, staphylococci, and numerous other microorganisms. After addition to blood agar, it favors the growth of pneumococci, as well as the production of characteristic hemolysis. Because of its high content of sulfur compounds, it is used for the detection of hydrogen sulfide producers.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1708HA – 500 g bottle
Tryptone USP is suitable for a wide variety of uses in general bacteriology for the preparation of culture media. As a result of its high tryptophan concentration, it is used for the detection of indole production. Lacking fermentable carbohydrates, it is included in media used to study sugar fermentations. Because of its compatibility with other ingredients, peptones or extracts, Tryptone USP is included in the composition of media intended for the growth and enumeration of bacteria in water, milk, other food products, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. Combined with papaic digest of soybean meal, it is used for the preparation of Tryptone Soy Broth and Tryptone Soy Agar.
Packaging
Dehydrated medium:
A1401HA – 500 g bottle
A1401GC – 5 kg drum
Yeast Extract is considered as a principal enrichment factor in culture media. It accelerates the growth of a wide variety of microorganisms, including yeasts and molds. Because of its carbohydrate content, it is not suitable for media intended for the study of sugar fermentation.
